AFRICAN JIGSAW looks at the problems of urbanisation, its
effects on tribal life and the casualties left in its wake. This is a complex
problem facing most developing countries and the authors do not pretend the
solution is a simple one, but examining the separate pieces of the jigsaw may
help young and old alike to come to an understanding of the situation and,
perhaps, to draw their own conclusions on its rights and wrongs.

Full with memorable tunes, this highly acclaimed work was
broadcast on ITV and also won a Ford Conservation Award. Published in
association with the World Wide Fund for Nature.

A musical duologue, AFTER THE BEEP traces
the lives of a 30ish couple after their relationship of five years ends. From
the moment that Jason leaves Samantha behind in their flat the two of them
never speak face to face, relying instead upon messages left on their answering
machines to communicate.

Jason attempts to deal with the problems of having
to move back home with his parents and Sam works her way through all the issues
and problems her new found single status creates. This intimate musical comedy
has been workshopped with the cast of Melissa Langton and Matt Hetherington
under the direction of Gary Young.
